The main purpose of this website is represent what I think I know, both to clarify my thoughts and beliefs, and to (hopefully) occasionally help others develop their own knowledge and beliefs. Everyone doesn’t have to originate every idea. It’s often easier to read and evaluate someone else’s ideas than to generate all of your own.
Over my lifetime, I’ve accumulated a unique combination of knowledge. Not necessarily more than anyone else, but unique to me, and spread across a relatively large array of subjects, especially science, philosophy, emotions, and life skills.
At the risk of being presumptuous, I think I bring a unique combination of perspectives: historical, scientific, and systems. I might even be able to offer an insight here and there.
I also read a lot and think a lot, and I try to glean the best of what each author has to offer–about subjects of interest to everyone: happiness, relationships, etc. I will freely offer anything that others might find valuable too.
I freely admit I don’t have all the answers. The authors of many blogs write like they’ve already got the answers and are just trying to convey them (e.g., do what you fear, etc.) They contain lots of advice. By contrast, this one will be more about hypothesizing, experimenting, and discovery. Sharing what seems true or useful or beautiful or fascinating or inspiring. Not just dispensing “the answers.”
